Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to pay late fees for TDS quarterly returns. It's recommended to pay the late fee before filing your return to avoid the need for a revised filing. While some suggest paying after filing and then adjusting, the consensus leans towards paying upfront via a regular challan, specifying the late fee amount in the relevant field.

You can pay online with a regular challan and mention amount in late fee field.

You should pay before so it can be included in TDS return rather than revising return later.

After Filing -You get intimation from the department about the number of late fees.

you paid the same with the challan through NSDL as the tax on regular assessment.

The amount is given on Sec.234 E-Late Fee Column.
You can pay the late fees along with return filed with challan
Pay under fees u/s 234E column. you can pay it before or after filing return. but if pay if after filing return then you need to revise your return.

No revising return is applicable. Only pay the fine for late filing.

Revision applicable change in the deduction, PAN etc.

You mean only paying the challan will off set the demand of late fees?

Yea, Exactly -We do for many years.

As per my knowledge you have to submit a online correction for setoff of the demand and I'm doing this from few years. Are you sure you have no outstanding demand for you late fees?

Sir, After paying the same, after some days you check with the Traces.

 

There is no demand is shown

 

Late fee u/s 234e -Not related to quarterly return data.
